"This debut is fairly impressive with some memorable songs such as "Early in the Morning" and "If I Had a Hammer". Certainly worth the listen for any fan of Folk music, or music in general."  Reply

"Don't not be swayed by all of the negative and ambivalent ratings this deserves a much higher spot in these charts. Talented vocals, multifaceted dimensions, able to master the test of high volume levels. Absolutely bloody brilliant!"  Reply

"There are very few living artists who could pull this off, but Cave delivers a collection of his finest songs (and some lesser known ones too) in such a breathtaking way. This album is stunning.
